Greyhounds:: Zoey's Story
We recently adopted a retired racer from Greyhound Welfare in Takoma Park, MD. I would highly recommend them to anyone thinking about adopting a greyhound in the DC Metro area, all of their dogs are in foster homes so they know a good deal about them before they are placed.

So now Nemo has a "little" sister named Zoey. Her racing name was Wind Vexed, which didn't suit her adorable and sweet personality. We call her "helicopter butt" because her tail never stops wagging, she absolutely loves everyone. She and Nemo are still working things out, but for the most part they get along very well. Right now we are working on learning manners, like keeping our big needle nose OUT of the dinner plates and not climbing on the counters. She has discovered the joy of fuzzy toys, and carries them all over the house. She loves to play with us and if we are busy, she will throw the toys to herself.

3/28/03 - My parents went out of town for the weekend so we had their greyhound Lily staying with us. She and Zoey got along great, although Lily did try to pee on her everytime they went outside. (which is nothing unusual, Lily pees on eveyone)

3/22/03 - Zoey comes home! We met Zoey and her foster Mom at the open house and after picking up the adoption contract and her supplies she came home with us. What a good girl, she slept through the night in our room on her bed without making a peep, and no accidents!
